🚀 Announcing Oakland Tech Week 2025 (Nov 17–21)!
Join us in Oakland for a week of community, innovation, and hands-on learning. Connect with founders, builders, and policy shapers across The Town.
We are excited to share that Just BE will be co-hosting a FREE workshop entitled Secure & Sovereign: Tech Safety and Equity for BIWOC Founders and Allies, featuring Kim Tercero of Tercero Solutions.
In a digital world that can feel overwhelming and exclusionary, this session is a welcoming space for BIWOC founders and allies to explore cybersecurity through a lens of equity, empowerment, and community care.
This interactive workshop breaks down the basics of tech safety in plain language — helping participants understand what “tech equity” means and how it impacts their daily work. Together, we’ll identify which current digital practices are secure (and which aren’t), learn about accessible tools and strategies to strengthen online protection, and build confidence in managing our digital presence.
As an attendee, you will receive:
✅ A powerful and interactive discussion on tech equity
✅ Solutions on what we can do as a community to better protect ourselves digitally
✅ 12 practical tools you can implement immediately to better protect yourself, as a founder, in the digital space
